TROUBLESHOOTING 

 
 
 
 

 

PROBLEM 

 

 

CAUSE 

 

1.  Low battery capacity: 
a. Observe 

the 

electrolyte 

level in the cell windows and 

make certain level is between the two scribed lines on 
the cell windows. 

b.  Continuous use of battery that has not been fully 

charged will cause it to lose its capacity. This may be 
corrected by cycling the battery several times 
(discharge 8 hours and recharge 16 hours). Repeat 
this procedure 3 times. If battery does not respond, 
replace with a new one. 

c.  Battery not charged. 
2. Loose 

connections: 

a.  Gently wiggle or pry each connection on top of the 

battery to make sure it is tight and working properly. 

b.  Check the cables for broken conductors by twisting or 

pulling it at various points along its length. 

c.  Check the headpiece terminals and the electrical 

connections inside the headpiece in the same manner 
as those on the battery. 

d.  Make sure the bulb is secure and making good 

contact. 

e.  If the light flickers or dims when any of the preceding 

items are being checked, that item should be repaired 
or replaced. 

Bulb glows dimly, flickers or fails 

3. Electrolyte 

level: 

a.  Check at least once each month to see that the 

electrolyte level is between the two scribed lines on 
the cell window. 

Battery not holding a charge during shift 

a.  Make sure charger output is correct. 
b.  Check electrolyte level after charge 
c.  Make sure connections between headpiece and 

battery are good. 

d.  Make sure that charging rack connections are good. 
e.  Make sure stored batteries are boost charged before 

placing into service. 

Battery capacity 

a.  13Ah battery recommended for 8-10 hour discharge / 

16-14 hour charge, 5 days a week. Use the 16Ah 
battery for greater cycle routines. 

b. Check 

charger. 

c.  Check battery connections. 

 
 
 
IMPORTANT :  ALWAYS RECHARGE THE LAMP AFTER USE.
